$369.00

New York City Grand Central Parkway sign. Up for sale today is this New York City freeway guide sign. Made to the exact state standard used from 1936 to the early 1950s. The actual old sign that is remade is shown, as is a similar one in field use from the 1930s or 1940s.An original of these is not only very rare to find scrapped, but is a herculean effort to transport; they are long since retired from active use. So here is your chance to own an excellent display piece, without chancing a hernia.The sign is flat printed on heavy gauge steel, with completely accurate layout and fonts. It weighs about 29 pounds, 5 ounces. the original size is 54 by 48 inches; this one is a precise rescaling of the freeway style sign down to a more manageable 36 x 32 inch size. it is a non-reflective sign - perfect for ordinary display, indoors or outdoors. (if you would like a larger size version, please ask as I can certainly make one!) This is a high quality, heavy steel sign. Accept no imitations that may be one-third this price, but are one-tenth the quality. No cheap tin to be found here, with the wrong fonts, layouts, size, shape, or any other manner of embarrassing imperfection. This one will make even the most discerning collector stick their nose into the sign, as it looks that good from that close! I can of course make these signs with any route number of your choice, and not just this style, but older and newer ones, and even the classic mileage, direction, and city limit guide signs from the era. Anything you would like, made with unsurpassed quality right here in the good old US of A. \"Life doesn\'t happen along the interstates. It\'s against the law.\" - Charles Kuralt Figure about 32 pounds for shipping, packed with care and mailed from zip code 61833. Thank you for your purchase!
